The best of all situations is to have a safety seat. I have 3 Snoozer brand seats....2 larger and 1 small. They are high enough that the doggie can look out. One of mine goes crazy if I put her on the passenger seat, but in her safety seat she is very calm. I would not recommend that any pet be loose in moving vehicle. It is a distraction and if you do have an accident, there is a chance that your beloved pet will fly around in the vehicle and be severely injured or even killed. An air bag going off has the potential to instantly kill your pet even though you are in a minor traffic accident. It has happened that pets has escaped from the vehicle and been lost. Some owners have been blessed enough to find their lost pet. I have been told by local police officers that they will not help an accident victim if there is an unrestrained dog in the car until animal control has been called. As you can see, there are many safety issues that can be addressed by just using a safety seat. Somewhere on YT someone gave instructions on making your own pet safety seat. There are leashes that connect to a car's seat belt that hook onto a harness. So if cost is an issue, there are ways of getting around it.

It has been mentioned that your baby is too young to be outside your home other than go to the vet. Vaccinations need to be given before your furbaby is exposed to the big world.
